GODS OF ENTERTAINMENT
Power of the Mass Media to Influence and Corrupt
Movie
Review
By
Dr. Ted Baehr, Publisher of MOVIEGUIDE®
HOLLYWOOD, CA (ANS)
-- Hollywood, CA -- Caryl
Matrisciana is a superb documentary filmmaker, and her video GODS
OF ENTERTAINMENT is an extremely important contribution to media
wisdom. Taking off on my statement that whoever controls the media
controls the culture, Caryl shows the behind-the-scenes mechanism of
how Hollywood works and exposes the prevailing bias in the
entertainment industry.
This video is not one-sided. It also shows, as we have for years in our
Report to the Entertainment Industry, that Christian, conservative, and
patriotic films do better at the box office, and it exposes the
political correctness, violence, sex, and foul language agenda of
another group of Hollywood filmmakers. In fact, one may ask why when
moviegoers prefer conservative, patriotic films with positive moral
values does Hollywood's elite continue to spew out motion pictures
promoting socialism, radical feminism, left-wing political correctness,
violence, sex, language, pagan influence and atheism? Mel Gibson's
unprecedented success with THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST
overwhelmingly expresses the spiritual heart of the majority of
Americans yet Hollywood's decision makers adamantly refused to invest
in the making of Mel's film or support its distribution. The GODS
OF ENTERTAINMENT shows us why.
Many believe the strong anti Judeo Christian bias of those in mass
media and their influence in the content of TV programs and movies is
to blame for the declining values of society. Hollywood would rather
advance films like the HARRY POTTER series that has been lauded
by pagans for the growing teenage interest in witchcraft than support
traditional Bible based themes. Again, the GODS OF ENTERTAINMENT
shows us why.
The most important contribution that this video makes is exposing the
concentration of power in the mass media and how that power is focused
on America’s 32 million teenagers. In the process of being bilked of
their $150 billion spending potential, these teenagers are being
seduced, enticed, and brainwashed by biased media messages which
dangerously twist worldviews for the worse.
Featuring interviews with Dr. Ted Baehr, Mel
Gibson’s documentary filmmaker Dave Minasian, radio talk show host Jane
Chastain, pastor Dave Shirley, and many others, this video is
must-viewing.
